I have, of late, rediscovered the joy and randomness of last.fm.
Having gone through and selected lots of songs and bands I approve of, it can now play me recommendations based on the music I like. And it just tuned me into this, which I found amusing, hence I'm posting it here;
ThouShaltNot - If I Only Were A Goth
(sing to the tune of 'If I Only Had A Heart')
I'd be thinner, I'd be taller
Go clubbing in my collar
With skin pale as a moth
Dressed in black, I'd go creepin'
While the normal folk are sleepin'
If I only were a Goth
With my hair up, I'd look fancy
Like Siouxsie and the Banshees
With silk or velvet cloth
Dressed in boots, never sandals
And the room would be lit with candles
If I only were a Goth
Yes I'd wanna die
From the bottom of my heart impure
Would I like another clove? Well, sure
And after that, we'll go listen to The Cure
I'd pretend to be a vampire
Like in stories 'round the campfire
I'd suck your bloody froth
Yes the thing I'd be best at
Is impersonating Lestat
If I only were a Goth
In my casket purse I'm toutin'
Einsturzende Neubauten
And pagan hymns to Thoth
Yes the world would be depressing
Over death I'd be obsessing
And this corpse that I'm undressing
Would be sexier, I'm guessing
With my diet I'd get scurvy
And I'd worship Peter Murphy
If I only were a Goth
Class! What's even more amusing is that last.fm chose to play me Chopin's Funeral March just before it.... someone somewhere has a brill sense of humour.
